Detailed Answer:
Hii. Welcome to the healthcare services. It seems that your boy friend has choked while drinking. It seems that liquid has entered into lungs and it stimulates cough and lead to choking. If he is now stable now then no need to worry. But if he is having symptoms like repeated cough, tremor or shaking of hand then you should consult an ent surgeon and get an endoscopy of the larynx to see if there is any problem in the larynx for which he is getting hurt everytime he takes food. Do a x ray chest and neck lateral view. If needed he may need to undergo a gastroscopy to see the foodpipe and comment further. Tell him to eat slowly and don't rush again. It can be due to acid reflux, any neurogenic spasm of the food pipe, any gastritis. So endoscopy is needed fir proper diagnosis. He can start pantoprazole at this time. Please review if you have any queries.
